Is the 2022 Nissan Maxima a good car?

The 2022 Nissan Maxima stands out as a large sedan with a distinct sporty identity, and it pairs that with a 300-horsepower V6 and composed handling. It is described as a relaxed driver overall, but you still get strong acceleration, good cornering manners, and a generous equipment list that includes an 8-inch display with navigation across all trims.

For you, that means the Maxima makes the most sense if you want a well-equipped sedan with a performance-minded personality rather than a truly exciting sports sedan. The market also shows 32.7% of listings as good or great deals, which gives you some room to shop selectively.

Is the 2022 Nissan Maxima reliable?

The 2022 Nissan Maxima is described as having an average record, and the available information points to reliability being a mixed part of the ownership equation. It also carries a CVT, which can dull responses and may matter to you if you plan to keep the car for the long haul.

For used buyers, that means long-term ownership risk is worth weighing carefully, especially if you want a sedan you can keep with minimal surprises.

What should I look for when buying a used 2022 Nissan Maxima?

At 73.2% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.

You should start with a vehicle history report and confirm whether any prior damage was repaired properly. After that, prioritize a thorough pre-purchase inspection so you can check bodywork, alignment, tires, and signs of uneven wear. Focus on overall condition and documentation, since the best examples are the ones with clean records and consistent maintenance.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2022 Nissan Maxima?

This looks like a moderate market where you can be selective without waiting for a dramatic bargain.

• Deal availability: 32.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 571 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 5.72% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 73.2% of listings are accident-free.

What is the 2022 Nissan Maxima's resale value?

The current average of $23,257 sits slightly below last year's $24,669.

That tells you the Maxima has softened in the used market, which can help you buy at a more favorable entry point today. If you plan to resell later, the recent decline suggests you should be realistic about future depreciation rather than expecting the car to hold value especially well. The upside is that a lower purchase price now can reduce the amount of value you have at risk over time.

Should I buy a 2022 Nissan Maxima or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2022 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2022 if:

• 32.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 73.2% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 5.72% compared with last year.

Consider the 2021 if:

• At $19,755, the 2021 costs less than the current year's $23,257 average.
• It offers a long-running nameplate with a more established identity.

The bottom line: you should lean toward the 2022 if you want the newer year and are comfortable shopping carefully for condition and history. If your priority is saving money upfront, the 2021 is the better value path, especially if you find a clean example with the features and condition you want.
